2017-09-05media: dmx.h: get rid of DMX_GET_CAPSMauro Carvalho Chehab
There's no driver currently using it; it is also not documented about what it would be supposed to do. So, get rid of it. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2017-09-05media: dmx.h: get rid of unused DMX_KERNEL_CLIENTMauro Carvalho Chehab
There's a flag defined for Digital TV demux that is not used anywhere, called DMX_KERNEL_CLIENT. Get rid of it. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2017-09-05media: fe_property_parameters.rst: better document bandwidthMauro Carvalho Chehab
Use a table to document the supported bandwidths. That makes it clearer to readers. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2017-09-05media: fe_property_parameters.rst: better define properties usageMauro Carvalho Chehab
Several frontend properties are specific to a subset of the delivery systems. Make it clearer when describing each property. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2017-09-05media: dvb frontend docs: use kernel-doc documentationMauro Carvalho Chehab
Now that frontend.h contains most documentation for the frontend, remove the duplicated information from Documentation/ and use the kernel-doc auto-generated one instead. That should simplify maintainership of DVB frontend uAPI, as most of the documentation will stick with the header file. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2017-09-05media: dvb/intro: adjust the notices about optional hardwareMauro Carvalho Chehab
Both CA and decoders are optional. Also, the presence or absence has nothing to do on being a PCI card or not. Nowadays, most hardware leaves the decoders to either the GPU or to some ISP inside the SoC, instead of implementing it inside the Digital TV part of the device. So, change the wording to reflect the hardware changes. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2017-09-05media: dvb/intro: update the history part of the documentMauro Carvalho Chehab
Convergence doesn't exist anymore. The community itself maintains the spec. Update accordingly. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2017-09-05media: dvb/intro: update references for TV standardsMauro Carvalho Chehab
The references there are only for DVB. Add missing references for ATSC and ISDB standards. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2017-09-05media: dvb/intro: use the term Digital TV to refer to the systemMauro Carvalho Chehab
On several places at the introduction, a digital TV board and its kernel support is called as DVB. The reason is simple: by the time the document was written, there were no other digital TV standards :-) Modernize the specs by referring to them as Digital TV.

2017-08-27media: docs-next: update the fe_status documentation for FE_NONEColin Ian King

2017-08-27media: dvbproperty.rst: improve notes about legacy frontend callsMauro Carvalho Chehab
The description of the DVBv5 API was written a long time ago, where the API was still new, and there were not apps using it. Now that the API is stable and used by new applications, clarify that DVBv3 calls should not be used and why. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2017-08-27media: frontend.rst: mention MMT at the documentationMauro Carvalho Chehab
The ATSC 3.0 uses MPEG Media Transport, with is not currently supported. Yet, we'll need to implement it sooner or later. So, mention about it at the specs. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2017-08-27media: frontend.rst: convert SEC note into footnoteMauro Carvalho Chehab
The description of what SEC means fits well as a footnote. That makes the need of saying that SEC is only for Satellite when it was mentioned, as the footnote already says that. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2017-08-27media: frontend.rst: fix supported delivery systemsMauro Carvalho Chehab
The introduction for the frontend chapter is not quite correct: - it tells that it supports only three types of delivery systems, in opposite to three *groups*; - It adds ISDB-C to the list of supported systems, but, this is not true. Fix it. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2017-08-27media: dvb/intro.rst: Use verbatim font where neededMauro Carvalho Chehab
The device numbering for DVB uses "M" and "N" as vars for the number of the device, but sometimes this is printed using normal font instead of verbatim. While here, remove an extra space after quotation marks. This is a minor cleanup with no changes at the text. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>

2017-08-26media: fix pdf build with Spinx 1.6Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Sphinx 1.6 generates some LaTeX code before each table, starting its own environment before calling tabulary, apparently to improve table layout. The problem is that such environment is incompatible with adjustbox. While, in thesis, it should be possible to override it or to redefine tabulary, I was unable to produce such patch. Also, that would likely break on some future Sphinx version. So, instead, let's just change the font size on bigger tables, in order for them to fit into the page size. That is not as good as adjustbox, and require some manual work, but it should be less sensitive to Sphinx changes. While here, adjust a few other tables whose text is exceeding the cell boundaries.

2017-08-20media: cec: rename pin events/functionHans Verkuil
The CEC_EVENT_PIN_LOW/HIGH defines and the cec_queue_pin_event() function did not specify that these were about CEC pin events. Since in the future there will also be HPD pin events it is wise to rename the event defines and function to CEC_EVENT_PIN_CEC_LOW/HIGH and cec_queue_pin_cec_event() now before these become part of the ABI.

2017-08-08media: media/doc: rename and reorder pixfmt filesHans Verkuil
After the DocBook conversion a number of pixfmt description files just had a number in the filename (pix-fmt-004, 006, etc) which was not very descriptive. Rename them. Note that pixfmt-008.rst was folded into colorspaces-details.rst, so that file is deleted. It's easier to maintain that way. Also moved the colorspace sections to the end of the chapter. The old order was weird: the "Standard Image Formats" section (an intro into pixel formats) was followed by the colorspace sections instead of the pixel format descriptions. Moving it to the end resolved that issue. Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hansverk@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>

Sending patches with SVG files via e-mail has a drawback: line size could be bigger than 998, with is the limit given by RFC 5322[1]. So, we need to enforce a lower limit, in order to allow those patches to be properly reviewed.
